    Chemical attack plan. Please advise.

    First off, my usual regimen doesn’t include spraying my plants with a bunch of chemicals/pesticides. The only thing I typically use is Azamax during veg to combat the spider mite I get during flower, but frankly it hasn’t been working very well. But I digress. I neglected to apply the beneficial...

    Spider Mite, Root Aphids And Pesticides

    After a relentless battle with these root aphids, I have decided to try and chemically eliminate them from some of my vegging plants. I realize that many things claim to kill root aphids, but the fact is many don’t work. After much research, I think I will use Promis (imidacloprid). Does anyone...

    Need Some Background On A Couple Strains

    I have a lemon brûlée strain that went to 12/12 a couple weeks ago. It looks nice and healthy, however a few of the fan leaves are purpling. Is this normal for this strain or is it some sort of nutrient deficiency? I can’t find much genetic history on this strain. I also have several G.O.O.D...

    Tds/ppm Confusion

    Recently in this grow I began measuring ppm’s in my dwc buckets, which is something I haven’t done before. I understand the basics of it and, when starting with new, clean (RO) water, adding nutrients to a desired ppm level is easily achieved. However, how are such weekly adjustments made to...

    Transplanting From Cloner To Coco Cups

    I have a bunch of clones that are starting to root in my cloner king. I would like to transplant a bunch of them into some 16oz solo cups of coco (maybe mixed with perlite). Once the roots are as long as the cup is tall I will transplant them, which will be soon. So far they have received zero...

    Roots Combining In Multi-pot Dwc Bin

    I’ve only used individual buckets to grow using DWC, but as the number of buckets increases, the more of a pain in the ass they have become. I made a 6 basket dwc out of an 18gal storage bin. Baskets are 5” in diameter filled with hydroton. They are a a couple inches apart one way and maybe 4”...

    Adding Cxb3590 To My Hps Room

    Hi all. I’m thinking about adding a 100w cxb3590 to my flowering room. I currently have 5, 600w hps going in about 100 square feet (8’ ceiling). My plants are kind of out growing their space. (DWC setup) I have another 40 square feet or so available in my room, but it is yet to be illuminated...

    Bugs In My Dwc Reservoir

    I was checking my pHs yesterday and I lifted one of the baskets to find dozens of tiny bugs crawling around. I have dealt with bugs in the past, but the only ones I’ve ever seen are barely visible under my 10x loupe. These are visible to the naked eye. They look like ticks kind of and they are...

    Dwc Root Rot/sludge Keeps Reappearing

    From week to week this brownish root sludge just keeps popping up. It’s so incredibly frustrating. One week the roots look great, the next they are all sludged up. I don’t understand why this keeps happening. I change the water every week. Most recently this sludge showed up about one day after...

    Individual Scrogs/supports For Dwcs

    In the past I have used one or two large scrogs over my many DWC buckets. Just made of pvc and garden netting stretched with zip ties. But as the plants grow though it, the individual buckets become very difficult to move or maneuver around cuz all the plants are connected to the same netting...

    2 Ft Clones In 1gal Promix - Transplant To Hydro?

    Just as title says: Is it possible to transplant 2 ft clones growing in 1 gal pots of promix to a DWC system?? Just shake the dirt off the roots a bit and pop them in the baskets and fill in with hydroton? This is what I’ve done before with clones in soil/coco, but they’ve never been this big...

    Help With Dwc Nutrients And Ec/tds, Brown Sludge

    I recently started monitoring the EC/TDS levels in my DWCs after I realized the GH nutrient chart I had been using (for some time) was for a “drain to waste” setup. After finding the “recirculating” setup chart, I was surprised to see that the nutrient amounts were significantly different. For...

    10x25’ Garage Room Setup Help

    I have a 10x25’ space in my garage that I would like to convert to a grow space. Electricity is there. 8’ cinder block walls on 3 sides. Some sort of partition will have to be built on one side, 25’Lx8’H, with some sort of entryway. A flat ceiling needs to be installed (25x10’). There is a...

    Monster Cropped Clones - Transition, Nutess

    Some of my monster cropped clones have rooted. It took about 10 days. Using clone king with only pure water so far. They are under 4 2ft T5s. I feel like I should be giving them some sort of nutrients now. The flowering plants they were cut from were getting half strength GH trio. How much...

    How To Use Uvc Light To Treat Powdery Mildew- Please Help!

    Plants are 3 weeks into flower and I’m about done trying to treat my PM problem by spraying different liquids all over everything and it’s not working anyways. I know UVC light can be used to kill PM, but at what concentration? Will a 3 watt handheld UVC light work to get rid of this? How...
